Can you add a cree led bulb assembly to this light without replacing the plastic head assy?

Yes you can change the lamp assembly in a G2 without replacing the plastic head. However, if you are going to a very hot CREE led or any high lumen output led drop-in you *may* want to consider a metal head replacement with a Pyrex type lens. The stock led versions of the G2 and G3's (G2L, G3L) were plastic nitrolon bodies and tail caps, but had the aluminum heads with the Pyrex type lenses for heat handling during extended use. These were great simple, reliable, single-mode lights that were great because of the popularity of "upgradable" parts. One consideration if you are thinking about a non-SF drop-in led assembly, is some of the imported led assemblies may have springs that do not line up nicely in your G2 and may require some kind of modification. Good luck!

Yes. The upgrade is very easy. Simply unscrew the G2 head and remove the P60 incandescent bulb. The CREE replacement bulbs come with a reflector, an LED assembly (with a small spring soldered on) and a larger, outer spring screwed onto the threads of the LED assembly. Remove the larger spring, you won't need it and the lamp won't fit with it on. You may have to adjust the LED/reflector fit by screwing the LED in/out of the reflector. Put the LED unit into the G2 head and screw it in. It might take a few adjustments to get it where you want it. Once you have that, put a little LokTite/crazy glue/epoxy on the threads to hold it in place. Yes. The upgrade is very easy. Simply unscrew the G2 head and remove the P60 incandescent bulb.

I have two that are used often and the bulb still works. Neither the Joby nor the Cree site show a bulb than tiny. There's also the chance that the replacement bulb could cost as much as a new flashlight. Good luck in your search.

These LED lights come with a small plastic bracket that you can use two way tape or screws. I was suggest screws, but may need to use a self tapping screw or a pilot hole.

The bulb actually sit infront of the trim, you can change the bulb without removing the trim ring, so yes you can use an LED bulb without sny problems.

Yes, u woyld check what the nax bulb require for the fixture, then convert to LED.Hope this helps

yes you can. however get a better version than this one. LED is not centered properly and the adjusting screws strip out real easy.

I don't think so. The red reflector is more like a reflective plastic piece that goes over the cover. Nothing like something you would be able to install LEDs to unless you start cutting out the cover and installing a new fixture.

not available locally; i got mine online. cannot convert back to a standard bulb. the prongs of the led stuff are notably larger and "stretch" receiver to where it will not accommodate the original incandescent bulb (won't stay lit without banging). will need to replace that mag light part as well.

I haven't looked into that yet, but intend to, as I was unable to find an LED bulb for the light, other than 25w. It is very cumbersome to change bulbs on the light!

after looking at mine a little closer it's as if its 5 little LED lights off together encased in plastic. I do not see a way to replace it no I have ever seen a product like that in the light bulb department. I will say that I've had mine since 2010 and I've never had a problem with it as long as the batteries are fresh. Hope that helps

I am not sure.... I have only used lights that come wth a head attachment. I guess if you have a clamp or some accessory to attach it would be possible.

Not that I'm aware of. It doesn't seem to be an included feature, nor do the bulbs have an advertised api, which would enable a more do it yourself approach.

There is no bulb on this light - you would have to tear it apart and figure out how to resolder a new LED array on the board.

No, the light is produced from 5 small diodes which cannot be individually replaced. It would be cheaper to replace the entire fixture.

I am not 100% sure. Apparently to replace the LED requires a special tool to pull a lower lid from a housing. But usually a life span for LEDs is quite long and for that reason manufacturers do not give much thoughts to design and make easy replaceable. And to replace those, a one has to have a new LED. I do not know if they are available in the market.

We have an LED bulb in it and it does not come to the top of the shade. We have a Cree LED 60 watt and it works wonderful. Go for it, you will be very happy and remember you heard it here first.

The entire LED assembly would have to be replaced. Perhaps Stanley will sell the part.
